Jesus Loves Children

He tends His flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in His arms and carries them close to His heart; He gently leads those who have young Isaiah 40. Little children in a world of wonderful beauty, a world of innocence and trust; a place of learning and growing, a place where the foundations of life are laid. There is another, vastly bigger world that surrounds us; a spiritual world where our Maker and Saviour is present - always. He sees. He cares for little children and grown ones too. His arm is able to protect and save. As we learn to place ourselves and those for whom we care, into His loving hand, we can know His peace and strength - even in the hard times. Jesus took little children in His arms, blessed them and said that anyone who does not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, will never enter it. Look closely to find His hands, look harder and you will find a serpent, blocked by those protecting hands.
